I hired Drip Too Hard Plumbing for a sewer line camera inspection at my property in Glendale near Pacific, and they were hands-down the most reliable Glendale plumbers I’ve used. They arrived exactly on time fully delivering on their DTHPromise and kept everything clean and organized. They walked me through the whole sewer line on camera, explained every detail clearly, and gave honest recommendations without any pressure. If you’re looking for a trustworthy Glendale plumber or searching for a plumber Glendale homeowners can depend on, DTHP is the team you want. Highly recommended!

I called Drip Too Hard Plumbing when I needed a plumber in Glendale to inspect and repair a gas line leak, and they were incredible from start to finish. The technician Jonathan arrived quickly, checked everything for safety, and explained the problem in a way I could actually understand. They replaced the damaged gas line, pressure-tested it, and made sure everything was up to code before leaving. It’s rare to find a Glendale plumber this professional and detail-oriented. If you ever need gas line repair or installation in Glendale, these are the guys to call — honest, fast, and truly skilled at what they do.

What Studio City Homeowners Call Us About

Years of local experience means we know what to expect in Studio City.

Galvanized pipes corroding and restricting flow

Learn more

Many Studio City homes built in the 1950s-1960s still have original galvanized pipes that are now severely corroded. The moderately hard LADWP water accelerates this corrosion, causing low water pressure and rusty water throughout neighborhoods like Woodbridge Park and Colfax Meadows.

Tree root intrusion in sewer lines

Learn more

Studio City's mature landscaping and established trees create ongoing sewer line challenges, particularly in older neighborhoods near Ventura Boulevard. Root intrusion is especially problematic for homes with original cast iron sewer lines from the post-war building boom.

Water heater making popping or rumbling noises

Learn more

The moderately hard water from LADWP causes significant sediment buildup in Studio City water heaters. This is particularly common in the area's ranch-style homes where original water heaters may have decades of mineral accumulation causing loud operational noises.

Unexplained increase in water bills

Learn more

Hidden leaks are common in Studio City's post-war tract homes, often occurring in under-slab copper pipes or aging galvanized connections. The valley's stable soil helps hide these leaks until they become significant, resulting in mysterious water bill spikes for homeowners.

Studio City Plumbing FAQs

Common questions from Studio City homeowners about our plumbing services, pricing, and service area.

Many Studio City homes were built in the mid-20th century and can have outdated plumbing systems prone to leaks and low water pressure. Older homes may also have galvanized steel pipes that can corrode over time, leading to mineral buildup and water quality issues. Our plumbers are experts at assessing and upgrading plumbing in vintage Studio City homes.
